Facing the reality of life apart, Fionn and Kiernan grab at the chance to be together, if only temporarily. But can they choose their own happiness over the wellbeing of two Monarchies?

Kiernan has made the fatal mistake of defying his mother, the Queen of Morven Forest, and in return, she has chosen the one punishment that is worse than death for a Sidhe. Severed from his connection to his beloved forest, Kier must learn to cope without his deepest magic.

Fionn, separated from the man he loves, has no choice but to attempt to fit in at the Eyrie. There-instead of fulfilling his true calling as seer and healer-he is expected to act as a symbol, a figurehead to bolster his King's rule. But his presence is not the only thing his King requires, and Fionn isn't sure he can continue pretending to adore the vain and possessive monarch.

When the Vogel Monarchy is invited to send a delegation to Morven Forest, Fionn knows it is his chance to see Kiernan again. What he doesn't know is whether or not Kier still wants him. After all, the half-fey is a Prince, a creature of court and forest, and has surely realized by now that he can have anything-or anyone-he wants.
